Injection Volume
The injection volume (syringe) is for report purposes only. You will control the
actual injection volume, with the syringe, at the time of the injection. Use the
microliter syringe supplied with the calibration kit (Part No. MX380310) to
inject small volumes.
Explorer is a very sensitive instrument. It is easy to overload
the column and detector by injecting a sample that is too large.
